If you leave the brake bleeder open while you compress the piston slowly, it keeps most of the fluid from going backwards into the ABS unit. It will automatically drip out of the caliper when you open the bleeder anyway, because of gravity. If you are careful, you won't have to follow any bleeding process thereafter, since no air will get into the line. Make sure there is enough brake fluid in the master cylinder, though.
